SUMMARY
The description for frameworks-solid is.... "Solid". That doesn't help 😉.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  File a new bug, should take you to https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi
2.  Look at frameworks-solid in the list of products.

OBSERVED RESULT
The description is only "Solid".

EXPECTED RESULT
Something more useful. I found these descriptions of Solid:
- https://github.com/KDE/solid and https://api.kde.org/frameworks/solid/html/ : "Desktop hardware abstraction \n %Solid [sic] is a device integration framework."
- https://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Solid/Introduction : "Solid is the new hardware device framework for KDE 4 that features, among other things, a hardware discovery layer..."
- https://community.kde.org/Solid : "Solid is a group of people focused on providing to KDE Platform and KDE Plasma Desktop hardware and system integration support. 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
N/A

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Every KDE product and component should have a single consistent crisp description (and if necessary a longer one-sentence summary). That will train search engines to know and answer "What is KDE Solid?"

Updated. I'll look at the other frameworks description
